Summary:
Tiffin City Schools contains a single middle school — Tiffin Middle School — serving grades 6–8 at 103 Shepherd Drive in Tiffin, Ohio, with 534 students and a student–teacher ratio of 17.8. Because Tiffin City Schools has only one middle school, nearly every school-level test score is identical to the district figure; the only exceptions are the End-of-Course exams, which are also taken outside this building. For families, the meaningful comparison is therefore the school against Ohio, not against the district. The school currently holds a 3-star rating and ranks 465 of 1,046 ranked Ohio schools, the 56th percentile.
The strongest results sit in advanced mathematics and social studies. In 2025–26, 8th grade math reached 65.5% proficient against 52.0% statewide, and Algebra I hit 87.5% against 61.6% statewide — a 25.9-point advantage. English language arts is the most stable subject, at or above the state rate in five of six grade-year observations, including 7th grade at 66.1% and 8th grade at 62.2%. Eighth grade science was also above the state at 66.7% versus 61.2%. Overall, unweighted across the tests measured in both years, the school ran about 4.4 points above the state in 2025–26, though that margin narrowed from roughly 8.0 points the year before.
The clearest soft spot is mathematics in the lower grades. Sixth grade math came in 7.3 points below the state and 7th grade math 9.5 points below — the mirror image of the strong 8th grade results — and both trailed the state in the prior year as well. Rank percentile has also drifted downward for three straight years (62 → 58 → 56) while the star rating held at 3. Chronic absenteeism, at 17.6%, is essentially in line with the district's 17.2%, so roughly one in six students is chronically absent. Two gaps limit what can be concluded: free/reduced lunch status was not reported for 2024–25, and per-student spending data dates to 2018–19.
